Not only did I win but I left with full custody of my kids. Amanda helped on my case and prepared all of the proof needed for the court to see tha...

Great Lawyer; Bad company
Retained her for 6 months. Ex was trying to move away with my two children. Amanda did a great job. If your looking for an attorney to lie for you or sling mud (like my ex's attorney) don't retain her. I believe she is a moral person that does what is right. The company however, will not work with yo...

Replied last May 07, 2018Thank you for the kind words regarding my representation of you in your matter. I understand that family law matters are difficult and family law matters are emotionally and financially draining. It is difficult to resolve a matter when the opposing party and/or opposing counsel utilizes tactics that are not ethical or moral. However, the Law Office of Heather Cullen is dedicated to providing quality legal representation and regrettably the quality of that service is sometimes overshadowed by legal tactics. Please contact our office privately if you require additional assistance with any of the concerns you have listed herein. It is my sincere hope that remainder of your family law matter has been or will be resolved expeditiously and amicably.

Heather represented me in my case for many years and always was able to balance the aggressiveness required with the compassion that I needed. She has a kind st...
